Interview with Historical Fiction Author Carmela Martino
The intersection of harpsichord, writing code, and care of the poor highlighted this episode. Carmela and I had a great conversation about how fiction changes us and the world we live in. We discuss her book, "Playing by Heart" at length.
Emilia Salvini dreams of marrying a man who loves music as she does. But in 18th-century Milan, being the “second sister” means she’ll likely be sent to a convent instead. Emilia’s only hope is to prove her musical talents crucial to her father’s quest for nobility. First, though, she must win over her music tutor, who disdains her simply for being a girl. Too late, Emilia realizes that her success could threaten not only her dreams for her future but her sister’s very life.
Playing by Heart is inspired by two amazing sisters who were far ahead of their time: composer Maria Teresa Agnesi and mathematician Maria Gaetana Agnesi.

Interview with Literary Fiction Author Katy Carl
What does it mean to love someone as they are? Is authenticity possible in a social media driven society? Are creative pursuits self-indulgence or a radical gift of self? How can literature help form identity and virtue? This discussion with Katy Carl was wide ranging and yet precise in its treatment of human dignity and generosity with our God-given gifts.

Interview with Novelist Jane Lebak
Angels and demons and robots, oh my! I had a great time chatting with Jane Lebak about her new spiritual warfare fantasy, Perdition's Heirs. She shared her experience about how her father cracked the code for her as to why literature matters. We discuss how books can either bring freedom or self fulfilling imprisonment in the mind.
